Co-optimizing component allocation and activation sequence in heterogeneous 1-out-of-n standby system exposed to shocks

Gregory Levitin et al.

Summary: Motivated by real-world applications, this paper presents a model for a heterogeneous standby system with n components, which can be allocated to different positions and are subject to random shocks. The system's mission success probability depends on the allocation and activation sequence of components. The paper proposes a joint optimal allocation and activation sequence (AAS) problem and presents a new numerical algorithm and genetic algorithm for solving it. A case study of a multi-UAV standby system is provided to illustrate the proposed model and evaluate its solutions.

Resilience modeling and pre-hazard mitigation planning of transportation network to support post-earthquake emergency medical response

Yangyang Wu et al.

Summary: Earthquakes can lead to disruptions in traffic networks, power outages, dislocation of trips, and injuries. In order to transport injured individuals to hospitals in a timely manner and avoid congestion, it is crucial to have redundant routes in the transportation network. This study focuses on improving system resilience by integrating emergency response and mitigation planning to support emergency medical response. A new methodology is developed to quantify the resilience of transportation networks, and the feasibility of a resilience-based pre-hazard mitigation strategy is investigated. The proposed framework is demonstrated in Shelby County, Tennessee.

An improved swarm model with informed agents to prevent swarm-splitting

Bei Xu et al.

Summary: The proposed paper introduces an improved distributed swarm model with a dual-adaptive feedback mechanism to prevent swarm-splitting and improve the probability of reaching the target area. The first feedback mechanism balances goal-oriented and social-oriented behavior of informed agents to maintain navigation accuracy while staying close to neighbors. The second feedback mechanism helps followers adaptively adjust their perception range and select appropriate neighbors based on nearby agents' state. Simulation results demonstrate the superiority of the proposed model compared to existing swarm models in four performance metrics. The proposed model has potential applications in the distributed migration motion of large-scale unmanned swarms, such as navigation and target tracking.

Tong Qiu et al.

Summary: This study investigates the resilience of precast underground stations (PUSs) with a large-span roof structure in multi-hazard urban environments. A joint vulnerability function and a restorability function are established to assess the physical and community resilience of PUSs. The results show the inherent sensitivity of PUS schemes and the importance of considering both engineering and community factors.

A Markovian approach to infrastructure life-cycle analysis: Modeling the interplay of hazard effects and recovery

Nariman L. Dehghani et al.

Summary: The paper proposes a Markovian LCC framework that reduces computational costs of probabilistic LCC analysis for large systems and enhances LCC estimates accuracy by capturing damage accumulations and incorporating uncertainties in downtimes associated with damage states. The framework is applied to estimate the LCC of a bridge in a seismic zone and finds that neglecting effects of damage accumulation and partial improvements in repair efforts can lead to significant underestimation or overestimation of hazard-induced LCC.

Modeling the varying effects of shocks for a multi-stage degradation process

Jia Wang et al.

Summary: In this paper, the consequences of random shocks on engineering systems at different degradation stages are modeled by dividing the system's entire life into four stages. Adjustment coefficients are used to express the cumulative damage of shocks toward the degradation rate, and a hybrid degradation and shock model is developed to estimate reliability. The proposed model can characterize the influence of shocks in different degradation stages and reasonably estimate the reliability.

Summary: This study examines the resilient performance of urban rail transit systems in Singapore and Chongqing, China by comparing the effectiveness of providing bus-bridging services and identifying the impact of interchange station locations on system resilience. The research indicates that attacking interchange stations may not always result in extensive resilience loss, and numerical simulations show that the positive effect of bus-bridging strategy varies between systems.
